CES 2026 is once again shaping up to be a massive event, with pretty much every major tech brand teasing their upcoming product reveals during the showcase. That said, LG was a bit too eager to show off its new Gram-series laptops, which come with a considerable upgrade in terms of performance and build quality.
We’re referring to LG’s new “Aerominum” alloy, which the company developed to be lightweight while maintaining its structural strength and “military-grade” durability. LG even says that the new material is able to resist most scratches, without adding a ton of weight to the laptops.
As for what’s under the hood, LG says that the laptops are designed for both performance and AI features. Powered by the upgraded EXAONE 3.5 sLLM and the Intel’s latest Core Ultra processors, the laptops come with on-device AI, as well as support for Gram Link software which serves as a universal hub for file sharing and screen mirroring across Android, iOS, and LG’s webOS devices.
The models include the LG gram Pro 17 which comes with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050 GPU with 8GB of GDDR7 memory, and the LG gram Pro 16 which features a WQXGA+ OLED display for professionals and content creators. Lee Choong-hwoan, head of the Display Business at the LG Media Entertainment Solution Company comments:
The 2026 LG gram represents a new milestone in our decade-long pursuit of ultimate portability. With Aerominum, we have successfully solved the paradox of weight versus durability, creating a premium metallic look that is both incredibly light and exceptionally durable. By fusing this breakthrough material with our advanced dual AI and security solutions, our highly intelligent and extremely portable new laptops empower users to work, create and connect seamlessly wherever they are.
